What will happen to Serena Bortone?

Ever since he dared to raise his head and denounce the censorship of Antonio Scurati’s infamous monologue that everyone has been wondering what will be the fate of Serena Bortone. According to what Davide Maggio’s blog anticipates, What will bethe program that Bortone hosted on Rai3 on Saturdays and Sundays in the last season after the surprise closure of Today is another day on Rai1, it will no longer be broadcast. The words of Rai CEO Roberto Sergio towards Serena Bortone after what happened did not, in fact, leave much room for the imaginationeven if the censored monologue itself was only a pretext, considering that the Rai3 program was one of the few to oppose the government lines that pushed to have certain names instead of others.

What will happen now? Again according to Davide Maggio, Sky journalist Maria Latella could arrive on Rai3 on Saturdays, ready to take the helm of a new in-depth program airing in access prime time. For Latella it would be a return, given that she already hosted the political talk show in 1996 From Twenty to Twenty right on the third network, then replying in 1998 with another talk entitled Solomon. PAs for Sunday, we are thinking of bringing forward the broadcast of Reports at 8.15pm instead of 8.55pmdirectly colliding with What’s the weather like by Fabio Fazio always assuming that Sigfrido Ranucci gives his approval.

But where will we see Serena Bortone? Being a journalist employed by the company and not a face on contract like many others, she could be placed in a role other than that of hosting, while still remaining a Rai workforce. Always assuming that some competing network does not come forward with an offer. What is certain is that, regardless of her personal likes and dislikes, Serena Bortone managed to make a difference in an otherwise monotonous schedule and far from any form of opposition, and this can only be acknowledged.
